Periodontal Disease causes Inflammatory Conditions that Effects Tissue and Teeth

Johnston Pillay

The gums grow swollen, red, and bleed in the early stages of gum disease, known as gingivitis. It is the leading cause of tooth loss in adults around the world. Periodontitis is a more serious form of gum disease in which the gums pull away from the tooth, bone is lost, and teeth loosen or fall out. It's also possible that you'll have bad breath. Bacteria in the mouth affect the tissue around the teeth, causing periodontal disease. Smoking, diabetes, HIV/AIDS, family history, and certain drugs are all factors that enhance the risk of disease. The diagnosis is made by visually evaluating the gum tissue around the teeth, as well as using a probe and X-rays to search for bone loss.
